Natural relief for itchy bubs and their parents

Around 6 years ago when friends Carolyn and Lisa had their
first children around the same time, they experienced what many other parents
had gone through before them – children with severe Eczema. Carolyn experienced
firsthand the horror and helplessness of watching her beloved little man in a
world of unhappiness, pain and exhaustion. Lisa was extremely lucky that her
little girl didn’t suffer from the condition directly however had many mum
friends enduring the same distressing circumstances.

It's no secret that the entry into parenthood is an unsettling
time for many so the last thing parents need is to be facing a heartbreaking
skin condition battle and learning curve. Although there are many topical
treatments for Eczema available (some more effective than others), a major gap
that was obvious to Carolyn in her frantic search for help was the very limited
clothing available. That was the point when the idea for Itchibubs was formed -
to provide a range of gorgeous, practical, Eczema friendly garments to help ease
the itchiness and more importantly, reduce damage that babies and toddlers
unwittingly do to their delicate skin by scratching.

Itchibubs jumpsuits and long sleeve tops have
fully enclosed hands to prevent little fingers escaping and damaging exposed skin.
A straight jacket you might say? A miracle most parents would agree! The
garments are made from 100% organic cotton which is grown and processed without
the use of harmful pesticides giving peace of mind that there will be no extra
irritation by the fabric itself. The super soft fabric used is lightweight to
allow the skin to breathe as it is known that overheating can further flare
itchy skin. Even the dyes used to create the gorgeous fabric patterns are
organically certified. To top it all off, in the true spirit of creating the
least irritating garment possible, seams are stitched flat and tags are
printed, not sewn in meaning no extra scratchy bits. The girls have thought of
everything! To view the full Itchibubs range, go to www.itchibubs.com.au or email Carolyn
